Introduction #

This API server & client SDK is made possible because of the P3OL project. P3OL is an "AOL®" server emulator that tries to provide an experience that was available during the early 1990s'.

The P3OL server project is funded by donations. Please consider donating here:

Infrastructure #

This project contains two components: the API Server and JavaScript SDK. Both are developed specifically for P3OL.

The API Server acts as a proxy between the JavaScript SDK and P3OL server and creates long-running sessions with P3OL. This allows you to build custom web-based clients using the JavaScript SDK without worrying about maintaining connectivity or working directly with P3OL's P3 protocol implementation.

The JavaScript SDK houses a WebSocket client & HTTP client to allow you to rapdily build and prototype custom clients.
